Browning the steak and sautéing the vegetables before slow cooking enhances the overall flavor of the dish. For a richer sauce, consider adding a tablespoon of tomato paste along with the diced tomatoes. Serve over creamy mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or polenta for a complete and comforting meal. Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar to your taste preference. If you like a thicker sauce, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
